Should fight week media not be complusary for these huge fights?

[elcj]

Seems like these media obligations get in the way and do just enough to cause a pull-out, for whatever reason.

Just let these fighters for huge fights, stay sheltered and just focused on making it to weigh-ins and the fight night. If you need them to do media stuff, pre-record that shit or do it if it's only absolutely necessary.

God damn. This card was looking too good to be true. Sucks.
Ortega & Hollyway was Khabib & Ferguson all over again. 2 seemingly unbeatable fighters finally about to fight, then we get left hanging.

If anything, the open workouts seemed to save Holloway big time. If he'd fought in this state Ortega would have murdered him.

What's media got to do with Max pulling out?

 

[legkicktko]

In all likelihood he was sparring too hard too close to the fight.

The leash will be short on him next time. That's for sure.

If both fighter have the same media obligations, how does one of them get screwed?

Well, look what happened to Cormier too after I said this.
